Leave the garnish white! be different!. Youll look like every other white le kitted vl without it. As for the tail lights they would look alot beter black instead of clear. Car has come a long way well done mate!

Holy moly i only just saw the pic of the car before you started! Boy has it come along way!! So well done nice work mate!

Well obviously you would more than likely have the only one in your area but i just ment in general it would look good white as it is something a bit different.

**UPDATE** It's been a while since ive been on, so i figured i'd update my cars thread. Since my last visit the wheels have gone on, along with the tint, exhaust and very decent sound system (going to have to research ways of ridding my car of vibration!!). I'm getting a stage 3 cam tomorrow off a mate also. And YES I am still looking for a calais rear eyebrows, boot garnish and tail lights desperately. Well here she is .. I love her to bits Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

wow! good work man that looks mad... only thing i would change is add a full calais back end (kos the le wing looks a bit awkward without it) and maybe spray the window surrounds black? otherwise looks perfect, those wheels suit it too. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
